Except for the usual eye-bleeding I get from looking at tcl code (or rather 
the thought of having to look at tcl, in this case), that might be a good 
idea, if the speed->option mapping is done right.

Especially having a "speed 0" that disables any optimization might be nice, as 
it's easier to tell a user with problems to try that option first.

The decision whether disabling the checks is a good idea should be based on 
profiling results of a revision from before slaughtering (sorry, that's the 
way I feel here) the JTAG layer.

See my other mail on the difference between IR and DR verification.
